molecular epidemiology of rabies epizootics in colombia: evidence for human and dog rabies associated with bats.	three urban rabies outbreaks have been reported in colombia during the last two decades, one of these is occurring in the caribbean region (northern colombia), while the other two occurred almost simultaneously in arauca (eastern colombia) and in the central region and ended in 1997. in order to derive phylogenetic relationships between rabies viruses isolated in these three areas, 902 nt cdna fragments encoding the cytoplasmic domain of protein g and a fragment of protein l were obtained by rt- ...	2003	12655080
host and viral traits predict zoonotic spillover from mammals.	the majority of human emerging infectious diseases are zoonotic, with viruses that originate in wild mammals of particular concern (for example, hiv, ebola and sars). understanding patterns of viral diversity in wildlife and determinants of successful cross-species transmission, or spillover, are therefore key goals for pandemic surveillance programs. however, few analytical tools exist to identify which host species are likely to harbour the next human virus, or which viruses can cross species ...	2017	28636590
